We may receive a commission on purchases made from links. Twenty-first century romance can be hell, but it gets a little more complicated when your significant other becomes significantly undead. That’s the premise behind “Zombae,” a new horror comedy coming to DVD and On Demand next month from Indican Pictures. Or is it new?

The movie’s trailer debuted exclusively on DailyDead, but it weirdly looks almost identical to another movie released in 2017 by the same director, cast, and production company, called “ZBurbs.” There are shots in the trailer for “Zombae” that come straight from the trailer for “Zburbs,” so I’m not entirely sure what’s going on, but I’m definitely intrigued. The synopsis for both films is nearly identical, though the marketing is incredibly different, so maybe this is just an attempt at re-marketing the same movie and presenting it as new? What is even happening here? The trailer and more details for “Zombae” below, because I’m not sure I can entirely figure out this mystery on my own.

What to Do When Your Husband’s Undead

The official synopsis for “ZBurbs” is a bit different, but shares similar DNA:

“What is a woman to do in the current dating climate? When a suburban housewife discovers that her husband has become a zombie with an appetite for human flesh, she must decide whether to stay in the marriage or wade into the dating pool. As she dips her toe in, she soon finds that the men out there are even worse than her zombie husband! With a little help from her best friend, she decides to make it work – no matter what.”

And check out the trailer for ZBurbs, just for extra measure.

“When a suburban housewife discovers that her husband has become a zombie, hungry for human flesh, she decides to make it work by feeding him bad people. But when the government gets wind of what she’s doing, his potential as a weapon brings on a different kind of hunger, and a tough decision must be made.”
